Re: Anyone have any experience slipstreaming drivers into an XP installation?
You shoulda nlited the shit out of it anyways. Don't think I'll ever install an XP copy without nlite...
Tho' it takes some learnin' on what to remove and what not to. You can always test using a virtual machine for that...

It turned out that something I did previously allowed the wrong audiodriver to get stuck. A new reinstall of XP and installing The Realtek HD Audio Driver as the very first thing did the trick.
Excellent ! Glad you got in fixed , now stay away from Windows Update . :pinch:

As in some other driver (non audio) or program triggered something. Hell if I know.. but it works perfectly now. I ran into a similar thing with my own laptop upon reinstall. There it turned out that hotkey drivers had to be installed before some other driver. And uninstalling the other driver didn't work. Only complete reinstall or serious registry modification would fix it. Since a complete reinstall on a new install isn't a big deal, I choose that over registry modification.
Every single driver installed and every single Windows update downloaded and installed.
